Summary: We construct the holographic duals to a large N, strongly coupled N = 4 super Yang-Mills conformal field theory defined on a four-dimensional de Sitter-Schwarzschild background. There are two distinct five-dimensional bulk solutions: the static black tunnel with two disconnected horizons, and the black hammock with one horizon in the bulk. The hammock horizon is not a Killing horizon, possessing interesting properties like non-vanishing expansion and shear, and allowing classical flow along it.

Summary: This study investigates logarithmic corrections to the entropy of supersymmetric, rotating, asymptotically AdS(5) black holes and black strings. It uses the AdS/CFT correspondence to determine the entropy on the field theory side. The results show perfect agreement between gravitational and field-theoretic methods, providing a window into precision microstate counting and demonstrating the efficacy of low-energy, symmetry-based approaches for asymptotically AdS black objects under certain conditions.

Summary: We study the flows of non-supersymmetric attractor black holes and find two types of extremal black hole solutions with attractor mechanism: one smooth at the horizon and the other non-smooth. The former is thermodynamically unstable, while the latter is stable.

Summary: The connection between quantum information and quantum gravity has attracted the interest of physicists. A new class of gravitational observables has been proposed to explore holographic complexity. This paper investigates the generalized volume-complexity for the Reissner-Nordstrom-AdS black hole in 4 dimensions. The findings suggest a discontinuous variation in bulk physics that represents the complexity of the thermofield double state defined on the boundary.

Summary: By applying the quantum extremal surface construction, we calculated the Page curve for eternal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes, ignoring backreaction and the greybody factor. The inclusion of islands outside the horizon of the black hole results in the entanglement entropy of Hawking radiation reproducing the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy with an additional term representing the effect of matter fields, helping to address the black hole information paradox.

Summary: The study reveals that the radius of the Einstein ring in the lensed response of a charged AdS black hole is independent of the chemical potential, showing behavior similar to weakly interacting quantum systems. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the radius of such a ring exhibits a distinct feature with a significant increase at low temperatures, while the ring remains unchanged at the edge of the screen for weakly interacting systems. This distinctive feature is attributed to the high energy modes of strongly coupled systems with a gravity dual.

Summary: This study investigates the evaporation rate of spherically symmetric black holes affected by radiation extraction near the horizon, showing that the rate can be altered depending on the placement of an absorptive screen near the horizon. Modifications to the scrambling time defined by Pennington's work are found, with logarithmic corrections dependent on the screen placement. Furthermore, the study suggests that the screen cannot be placed arbitrarily close to the horizon, leading to the conclusion that black hole mining using a screen may not significantly impact the black hole's lifetime.

Summary: This paper extends the study of asymptotic flat black holes by discussing the island rule in vacuum states. The emergence of the island at late times and its boundary's dependence on the position of the cutoff surface are observed, which is different from the case of eternal black holes. Different states have a significant impact on the entropy in the island formula, leading to different results for the Page time.

Summary: The study focuses on two-dimensional eternal black holes with non-zero mass, interacting with a CFT on a circle. By computing the Page curve, it is found that the entropy rises linearly at early times and remains constant at late times, depending on the size of the thermal baths. The critical size and Page time are proportional to the ratio of the central charges of the conformal defect and the bath CFT.

Summary: Recent work has shown how to obtain the Page curve of an evaporating black hole through holographic computations of entanglement entropy. The validity of these computations is justified using the replica trick and geometries with a spacetime wormhole connecting the different replicas. The Page transition is studied in detail in a simple model by summing replica geometries with different topologies. Related quantities are computed in less detail in more complicated models like JT gravity coupled to conformal matter and the SYK model. Additionally, a direct gravitational argument for entanglement wedge reconstruction is given using the explicit formula known as the Petz map, where the spacetime wormhole plays a significant role. The interpretation of the wormhole geometries as part of some ensemble average implicit in the gravity description is also discussed.

Summary: This study applies the quantum extremal surface construction to the step-function Vaidya model of evaporating black holes, and finds that the location of the entanglement island boundary depends on the value of 8M - vA + vI when cutoff surface A is in Minkowski region III. Moreover, it is observed that the entanglement island still exists and partial derivative I is located on an equal-time Cauchy surface of observer A when cutoff surface A is in Minkowski region III after the black hole completely evaporates.

Summary: Studying closed FRW cosmological models on the worldvolume of a constant-tension brane inside a black hole provides an interesting way to explore cosmology holographically. By considering hyperbolic slices, the limitations that arise in models with flat spatial slices in more than two dimensions can be overcome.

Summary: Researchers found that in constructing closed FRW cosmology models, the requirement to avoid self-intersections limits the brane tension to T < T*, preventing the separation of scales between the brane and bulk curvature scales. Adding interface branes to the model does not change this condition.

Summary: In this paper, the authors investigate the generalized volume-complexity C-gen for a two-sided uncharged HV black brane in d+ 2 dimensions. They numerically calculate the growth rate of C-gen for different values of the hyperscaling violation exponent 0 and dynamical exponent z, and find that C-gen always grows linearly at late times with properly chosen lambda. The authors also examine the dependence of the growth rate on d, theta, z, and lambda, and calculate the complexity of formation obtained from volume-complexity. They show that it is not UV divergent and examine its dependence on the thermal entropy and temperature of the black brane. Furthermore, they numerically calculate the growth rate of C-gen for a linear combination of higher curvature corrections and show that the late time growth rate is again linear for appropriate values of the coupling constants.

Summary: The paper presents a systematic framework for studying quantum computational complexity of Gaussian states in charged systems using Nielsen's geometric approach. It examines the effect of chemical potential on complexity dynamics and demonstrates that charged thermofield double states can be related to uncharged states through factorization. Numerical evaluations and analysis are provided for the complexity of formation and time dependence of charged thermofield double states, with comparisons made to results from holography for charged black holes.

Summary: This study explores the relationship between a novel entropy formula and semi-classical entropy in the context of doubly-holographic models. It discusses the correct homology constraint for Ryu-Takayanagi surfaces and the possibility of disagreement in the von Neumann entropies of fixed subregions in both descriptions. The research also speculates on the connection between double-holography and black hole complementarity.

Summary: This paper presents a new infinite class of gravitational observables in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space living on codimension-one slices of the geometry, the most famous of which is the volume of the maximal slice. The authors show that these observables display universal features for the thermofield-double state, growing linearly in time at late times and reproducing the switchback effect in shock wave geometries. They argue that any member of this class of observables is an equally viable candidate as the extremal volume for a gravitational dual of complexity.

Summary: By allowing for non-minimal coupling between curvature and matter fields, we obtain the correct expression for the modular Hamiltonian of thermal states and derive the first law of generalized entropy. This result includes the contributions from non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature and takes into account background field perturbations and non-zero stress tensor expectation values in the gravitational equations of motion.

Summary: This study investigates the information theoretic properties of planar black hole microstates in 2 + 1 dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime. The von Neumann entropy of subregions in the dual CFT shows a time-dependent phase, corresponding to the appearance of quantum extremal islands in the brane description. The addition of dilaton gravity on the brane affects the propagation of information in the dual CFT state. Information theoretic bounds on the growth of entanglement entropy place constraints on the allowed values of the couplings on the brane. Furthermore, the study explores how subleading corrections to the entanglement velocity can provide information about the properties of the brane and any localized gravitational dynamics.

Summary: This paper discusses the relationship between holography on cutoff surfaces and causality. By treating the brane description of double holography as an effective theory, it is demonstrated that causality violations due to faster-than-light communication are not observable above the associated cutoff length scale. The study suggests that short distance non-localities can lead to apparent faster-than-light propagation of signals in Anti-de Sitter space.
